I can say with certainty while with Abbotsford his play was not as good in year 2 as it was in year 1 or 3. Obviously year 3 being his best and most consistent of the 3.I would think there were other circumstances going along with that, though. What kind of role was he given and how good were the teams from year to year, for example. All I've seen, obviously, is the product we get at the NHL level after he earns a call-up (which he's done every year since joining the organization).
Good point on the role thing. In year 3 he was pushed to the 3rd line and played against weaker competition while in Abbotsford. I guess you figured out his improvement
